I had rolled an ultra-low setup before as well, but no more. Now I'm more in the usual 5/64 to 6/64 range, feeling fine.

Gibson are pushing this previously rare model of their back catalog hard, which is surprising to see these days. Gibson modernized the specs in the 1990s already, and Epiphone made something else entirely again under the same moniker, probably for a new generation. I just hope it pays off.
-
The higher end Epiphones sound pretty good, and the Gibson-made ones are stellar, second to none. As beginner guitars most Epiphone do a really nice job for the money. Of course you'll buy the real thing eventually.

Got some pictures? I have my Gibson L-00 Original Ebony on preorder for later this year.
-
It's also worth noting that the Custom Shop is pumping these out instead of Gibson USA. So the quality will be very high.

Gibson J 180 M2M ordered in July 2022
Leonard McCoy replied to motorcitychick's topic in Gibson Acoustic
You could always inquire with your Gibson dealer... -
The patch could have been placed there as reinforcement. Perhaps the sides are especially thin at that spot or developed a defect upon bending into shape. No signs on the outside? The material is a curious choice.

My bad. The Wafflebacks are indeed 15:1.
-
I love the Kluson Supreme and Kluson Wafflebacks tuners. Both feature an 18:1 gear ratio.

I cannot state enough how incredible the treble response with this L-00 is. It's like trebles have their own reverb pedal attached to them. Gorgeous! -
Gibson 1999 J-180 EC preamp problem
Leonard McCoy replied to Wesley Gibson's topic in Gibson Acoustic
Not sure, you could inquire with Fishman directly, they might be able to help out. It it were me, I'd have the Fishman pickup replaced for an LR Baggs at this point, or have it removed entirely. -
Can't resist a black Gibson, won't resist a black Gibson.

Playing higher up the neck, say 7th fret upwards, is actually a bit easier than with the Slim Taper because there's more meat to support your hand. If you're playing with your thumb over the neck, you gotta reposition your thumb a little bit. Overall a very comfy neck, but I still prefer Gibson's Slim Taper.
